Abstract
The analytical method having both flow cytometery and cytodiagnosis functions comprises the steps of: preparing a sample containing particulate substances such as cells and viruses; injecting the sample into a plate-like sample container; centrifuging the sample container; and using the sample container in which a distribution of the particulate substances has been formed as a preparation for analysis. The preparation is scanned with a laser beam to obtain analytical data. An analytical device for this method is also provided.
